Fig. 2: Correlation Heatmap of DEPs and cognitive functions.

For DEPs between SCZ and HC, PECAM1, ITGB3, ITGA6 and FN1 were negatively correlated with scores on BACS-SC, BVMT-R, and CF; Additionally, PECAM1 was negatively correlated with scores on HVLT-R and positively correlated with the time taken for TMTB and SCWT-A; ITGA6 was negatively correlated with accuracy of CPT-Hearing; FN1 was positively correlated with completion time of CPT-Version, TMTA, TMTB and SCWT; CD5 was positively correlated with completion time of TMTB and SCWT-B. For DEPs between NRES and RES, CD33 was negatively correlated with score of HVLT-R, maze task and BVMT-R; CD40 was negatively correlated with score of HVLT-R, BASC-SC and BVMT-R; TENM2 was negatively correlated with WMS-III parallel and total score; *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001.
